COMMUNITY APPLICATION

Executive Summary: The Art Association of Jackson Hole is dedicated to encouraging a vital, creative community by providing everyone with exposure to, education in and enjoyment of a wide variety of art experiences. The Art Association has made visual art a vital part of creative life in Jackson Hole for over 54 years. Comprised of five studios and a gallery, our facility provides over 10,000 square-feet of space to learn, practice, and exhibit art. Beginner to master level instruction is offered in the mediums of painting, drawing, ceramics, sculpture, photography, silversmithing, glass, printmaking, blacksmithing, mixed media and more. Inclusivity is a key Art Association value and class fees are always kept at an accessible price point. The Art Association also offers scholarship funds for families in need.

The Art Association respectfully requests TCSDRD funds to directly support Youth Art Education and ensure that tuition prices remain accessible to all local families. The Art Association's Youth Art Education program encourages creativity and self-expression through artistic experiences in a safe and supportive environment. In
each program our professional instructors give students individual guidance working on projects at an age appropriate level. Current class offerings for K-2 children include instruction in kinetic art, drawing & painting, toys & games design, mixed media, sculpture, ceramics, two spring break camps, and eleven weeks of summer break programs. Elementary students in grades 3-5 can take classes in digital photography, ceramics, digital illustration, sculpture, painting, two spring break camps, and a variety of camps during summer vacation. Middle and high school youth can select from instruction in drawing techniques, ceramics, digital animation, digital photography, painting, filmmaking, and summer programs. All of these programs occur after school hours, and during spring and summer breaks, offering a valuable resource to local working parents.

The Art Association works closely with TCSD to publicize class and camp opportunities, including placing materials in buildings and distribution directly to students.
 

The Arts are a form of recreation, as creating art is consistently linked to reduced stress, anxiety and positive self-thought. Making art encourages confidence and a sense of community. Creative expression develops critical motor skills and hand-eye coordination in children. The Art Association’s youth programs encourage
creativity and self-expression through creative experience in a safe, supportive environment. Through our programming, we ensure Teton County youth from diverse backgrounds have access to excellent art education.

Executive Summary: The Dancing Alphabet is a multi-faceted, district-wide kindergarten program that teaches the ABCs the way young children learn best: through movement and art. pARTners collaborates with Dancers’ Workshop to teach dance concepts that help students understand spatial awareness and the shapes of letters through a two-week program that reaches 5 schools in the district.

During the first week of The Dancing Alphabet, the students are each assigned a letter of the alphabet and asked to make the shape of the letter with their body. During the second week, a pARTners visual artist comes into the classroom to guide the students through creating backdrops and performance t-shirts. At the conclusion of the program, parents are invited to a final performance, where students showcase what they’ve learned.

Research shows that dance and movement positively impact student learning and emotional well-being. Numerous reports demonstrate a connection between kinesthetic learning and student achievement, particularly for minority students (Latino) who can be challenged in traditional academic settings. In a research project conducted by Rima Faber (2011), she found that students who participated in kinesthetic activities “performed better and retained knowledge 30 days later than those who were not exposed to kinesthetic, dancebased approaches.” In addition, child development research shows that all children are kinesthetic learners as infants and toddlers. Movement is how they navigate and find their way into and through the world. Many students in Teton County remain kinesthetic learners
and need these opportunities to increase the opportunities for success in school. (Park C.C., 1997b; Park C.C., 2000)

Another research study, Basic Reading through Dance (McMahon, 2003), found that movement activities could positively influence early reading skills. During The Dancing Alphabet, students move letter shapes and sounds, create name dances, and practice flow from one shape to the next. Students who participate in the program excel in consonant recognition, vowel recognition, and phoneme segmentation. The Dancing Alphabet provides Teton County students with the opportunity to reinforce their learning in an engaging and impactful way.

This project positively impacts the way students learn and process knowledge, while also promoting physical fitness and exercise. These opportunities motivate students, get them out of their seats, and encourage them to connect with their surroundings. Learning the alphabet through movement is a valuable experience for all children in Teton County.

Executive Summary: Dancers’ Workshop (DW) is seeking funds for DW’s Summer Arts Camps to help supplement the cost of teacher salaries, art supplies and materials. DW’s summer day camps vary from DW’s typical dance classes to involve a multi-disciplinary arts curriculum. Each week-long camp explores a theme by studying different artistic modalities and mediums such as creative movement, visual art, and creative writing. DW is scheduled to host 7 week-long camps for this
upcoming 2022 summer season.

DW’s summer camps provide students with all materials for the class including but not limited to: paint, markers and colored pencils, materials for sculpture, access to welding, specialty adhesives, and fabrics. Students explore different artistic modalities such as watercolor and acrylic paint, sculpture, mask making, collage, and
even book making. Students who are new to dance are introduced to the art form through creative movement and DW’s dance curriculum used in our Outreach Program throughout the public school system.

DW’s summer camps are unique in that they truly encourage students to find their own voice and use art to explore deeper and more complex themes. The camps are designed to attract a wide array of students, with no prior dance experience necessary. Students are encouraged to ask questions, investigate, think critically, and use art to express themselves and find their individual voice. The versatile curriculum of DW’s summer camps invite a diverse student population, and are developed to provide something for each attendee.
 

An example of summer camp curriculum: In “A World I Can Imagine”, students create their own imaginary world and are asked to answer questions regarding the environment, government, society and everyday life in their world. Drawing from current events and our own World, each morning begins with a ‘wall of questions’ where students dive deeply into certain topics to help answer questions about their own imaginary world. What kind of people live there? Does your world have money? Do people work? What kind of environment does your world have? Students are then asked to design and create their own world map, make a crown to represent their leadership and choreograph a cultural dance. At the end of each camp, students present and perform their creations for their parents, family and
friends.
 

DW strives to keep summer camp tuition as affordable as possible and to provide child care for working parents in our community. Summer camp hours take place Monday-Friday 9am-3pm and cost $395 for the full week. If requested to do so, DW is willing and ready to provide an additional 2 hours of child care services post camp hours. DW provides scholarships for families who qualify. In addition, DW partners with One22 to reach a wider range of students which provides more financial aid to families in need of help. For One22 students: One22 provides one third of tuition, DW provides one third of tuition in scholarship support, and the remaining third is paid for by the family. For students paying full tuition, the cost of camp breaks down to $13.16/hr and for students enrolled through One22, the amount paid by the family breaks down to $4.35/hr. Funds from this TCSD Recreation District Grant will help supplement the expenses of each camp so DW can keep the cost of tuition lower and camp accessible to all in our community. 

DW summer camps are a summer highlight for camp attendees as well as the staff who teach them. The day is broken into different periods of time, balancing art and dance classes and class discussions, with play and physical outdoor activity activities. DW strives to enrich the lives of each participant by providing a well rounded and educational experience for each child.

Executive Summary: Our Summer 2022 Programming aims to create formative experiences for local Jackson kids, especially those who come from marginalized backgrounds and do not otherwise have access to these spaces. Spending time outdoors and away from screens is paramount to the healthy development of children, and something that each child should have access to. Children who participate in Coombs Outdoors have been surrounded by positive mentorship and learning opportunities, and place to enjoy their childhoods and making lasting memories. Funding our Summer 2022 Programming will continue to help us serve this community in impactful ways. With more resources, will also be able to better respond to community needs and grow our programming in sustainable and culturally relevant ways.

In 2020, Coombs Outdoors served 100 youth, offering two weeks of summer camp each to 50 elementary students and 50 middle schoolers. In a Spring 2021  survey and focus group with Coombs parents, many indicated that their families are in significant need of affordable day-time programming that helps get the their children outside, away from screens, and participating in community building activities. Many existing summer programs in Teton County are financially out of reach for families, or they fill up too quickly for parents to take advantage of scholarships. Coombs programs response to this feedback was to create more days of programming for more local children in the summer of 2021. In 2021, Coombs expanded summer camps to serve 150 local youth. 85 K-5th graders received three weeks of Activate camp each (one week each per month) and 65 middle-schoolers attended three weeks of Engage camps (one week each per month). This was a significant increase in program days over the summer of 2020, yet we still experienced a wait-list and requests from parents for more days/weeks of services, specifically from parents of elementary children.

Summer 2021 also marked the launch of Coombs Outdoors’ new EMPOWER internship program for high school students. Previously, outside of skiing, Coombs did not offer programs that provided support for high schoolers. Many of our teenage participants work throughout the summer to save money or help their families with expenses and therefore are unable to participant in Coombs’ summer programs. The EMPOWER program matches Coombs’ participants with internships at local outdoor industry businesses and nonprofits, providing a guaranteed wage of $16/hour which opens doors to jobs that would not otherwise be financially competitive with other summer employment opportunities in Teton Valley such as landscaping, construction, and restaurant work.

This past summer 14 Coombs interns attended workshops during which they received professional development training, resume and cover letter guidance, mock  interview opportunities, financial literacy training, and best practices in self-advocacy and workplace communications. These 14 interns all successfully completed 10- week internships at places such as Rendezvous River Sports, R Park (a program of the Jackson Hole Land Trust), Hole Food Rescue, Snow King, Jackson Hole Mountain Resort, DIY Docs, Wheel Wranglers, and Coombs Outdoors. Several of them were hired on independently by their employees for fall employment. All  partner employees received Diversity, Equity, Inclusion training prior to the start of the internship program, ongoing check-ins with Coombs staff to address concerns or issues, and they all indicated they would like to participate again. In Winter 2022, 14 Coombs participants joined us for the winter cohort. 11 of these participants are receiving their Jr. PSIA Certificates, 9 of whom will be employed by Snow King as Jr. Ski Instructors this winter. Others will be working as ski technicians at Black Tie Rentals, Assistant Nordic Coaches for the Coombs and JH Ski Club Nordic Program, and for Teton Literacy Center. The winter cohort is also receiving professional development training workshops and will be supported by Coombs throughout the program.
 

For summer 2022, our goal is to expand access to our Activate summer program, increasing both the amount of K-5th grade children that Coombs can serve as well as the amount of program days that children receive throughout the summer. For elementary aged participants, our ACTIVATE camp is designed to introduce rising first to fifth graders to the joys of being outdoors. Each week will feature structured activities that build over the course of the summer, including paddle boarding, hiking with rangers, whitewater rafting, fishing, and much more. Camp days will incorporate place based education activities, as well as plenty of time for unstructured play fostering creativity, reflection, and exploration. At this age, we want to spark curiosity, build confidence to try new things, develop social and emotional processing skills, and help participants feel a connection to their local environment and to each other. Through increased time outside ACTIVATE  participants learn to become comfortable in nature and gain a love for the outdoors, all of which provide mental, emotional and physical health benefits as well as
build the foundation to graduate into our ENGAGE program.

We also hope to increase our Empower internship numbers for Summer 2022. Last year, due to limited resources we capped the program at 14 interns and turned 10 candidates away. Thanks to generous funding from an individual donor, we have been able to extend the internship program into the winter. We have many requests from local employers to participate in the program and our goal this summer is to be able to include 25 interns in the program. Students in the Empower program also receive information on local scholarships, referrals to the First in Family Scholarship program, and opportunities to attend college tours. The Empower program provides local high school youth with support and resources that help with planning and decision making for their futures.

Expanding the Activate and Empower summer programs requires financial resources to hire additional, qualified summer staff, pay entry and camping fees for  additional participants to national parks and forest lands, cover the cost of transportation and gas for program trips, and provide stipends for Empower interns. Funding through the TCSD #1 Recreation Grant will help Coombs Outdoors will support expanded capacity for summer programs.

Executive Summary: For 25 years, GAP! has been providing confidence building after school programming for girls in Teton County to gain personal empowerment and leadership skill development. WE typically work with 3-5th grade girls in local public elementary schools and with 6-8th grade girls at JHMS. The participant demographic we serve is typically 35% LatinX and 65% Anglo. GAP! also does team building and leadership program sessions for JHHS girls soccer, lacrosse, volleyball and dance teams. We are requesting funds to over the cost of activities, supplies and snacks through the 2022-23 school year. We work with staff, strong female mentors and community partners to guide the girls in social emotional learning, self discovery, theme based recreational activities and leaning into community mindedness. Some of the topics and activities we cover are : identifying core values, naming obstacles to growth and success and discovering tangible tools to address them, practicing honesty, respect and authentic interactions, navigating conflict gracefully, random acts of kindness in our community, learning the history of women in Wyoming, exploring mindfulness practices, embracing uniqueness, acceptance and support rather than comparison and judgement, studying the impact of social cultural norms on self identity, looking at social media and its influence on self esteem and behavior, healthy body image, exploring movement, discovering personal strengths, gender differences/diversity/inclusivity, self defense, yoga, meditation, active team building, utilizing positive assertive communication, courage to stand in your truth and use your voice, and becoming brave over perfect. Studies show that girls' confidence drops by 30% upon entering middle school, a pivotal time in a young persons life. Only 1 in 5 girls report that they are brave, and 1 in 4 girls will face sexual harassment by age 18 in our state. Sadly, girls who spend a lot of time using social media and technology are 5 times likely to say they are depressed and anxious every day. Research shows that Depression and Anxiety have increased in our adolescents by 59% since 2011. Our programming aims to help girls own their personal power, gain self esteem and make choices that lead to their long term success rather than become another statistic. Another fact to consider is that while girls generally out perform boys in academics through college, less than 14% of top leadership positions in the U.S. are held by women. We know that a girls interest in pursuing a
STEAM related career is positively influenced 8% if she is part of a leadership youth group like GAP! We have a strict no- phone policy during our program sessions to help girls be connected and on task. We offer a fun, active, provocative and theme based curriculum that encourages internal reflection, builds self awareness, utilizes tangible tools to navigate life, engages in community collaborations and provides skills and experience to guide girls into becoming competent and confident women. We survey participants after every program to assess whether the skills we teach are perceived as relevant and helpful. Some of the statements we ask girls to finish are "GAP! has increased my confidence by.... or "GAP! has helped me learn.....". Some of the answers from 8th graders were 'I learned how to follow my heart and love myself, I learned how to relate to others, I learned I am not alone, I learned not to judge others and be true to myself'. We know that embracing self awareness and setting positive intentions/goals is a leading factor of girls attaining actual success, and this evaluation method effectively measures the outcome we are seeking. Attendance is an additional measure of success...GAP! attendance is voluntary and very inexpensive with scholarships available. Our goal is to have girls return to continue their connections and skill building. We have a 80% return rate and our programming has expanded to include more girls in elementary school and team sports. Our sessions introduce sometimes challenging topics and engaging activities that invite the girls to dive deep into self exploration, articulation and adopting empowered ways of showing up in their world.

Executive Summary: Horse Warriors™ has been serving youth and families in Teton County since 1998, supporting the creation and maintenance of healthy relationships, including community service, teaching leadership and empowerment, and supporting respectful communication within families. Historically we have leased Wilson Arena for our riding programs. However, the increased traffic in Jackson Hole has made it impossible for students to arrive and be picked up in Wilson on time, and also for us to be able to safely exit onto highway 22 in the afternoons with our fully loaded horse trailer (and staff and students). The traffic flow over the pass is now at such an intense level that without a signal light at the Wilson School turnoff we can not get out until late in the evening. We have had to
arrange to use the Heritage Arena in order to provide our services in a safe and timely manner. The cost of that arena is substantially higher than Wilson, and although the original plan for that arena was to prioritize youth programs, the fair is inflexible in their pricing. The cost is $25/hr., plus $10/hr for lights. We have no other options. In the past the Rec Board has funded the leases on Wilson Arena and we hope they will help us with this cost increase. The cost of the arena/lights is $2695. (8 Power Ponies™ days x 7 hrs = 56 hrs x @$25/hr = $1400 +$10/hr/lights x 56 (560) = $1960; (3 arena training [prior to trail riding] Horse Warriors™ days x 7 hrs = 21 hrs x @$25/hr = $525 +$10/hr/lights x 21 (210) = $735 for a total of $2695. The cost for the outdoor arena is the same as the indoor, and we chose to be indoors to minimize the noise for our riders who are hard of hearing, and to minimize the effects of inclement weather on our younger riders (age 6-11). We also would like to have help with our uniform tshirts, and 3 staff jackets for our interns. Some of our returning students have their t-shirts from prior years, so these are for new students and new student mentors. The cost of the new shirts and jackets is $432.

Executive Summary: Jackson Hole Lacrosse Club's (JHLC) mission is to "Engage and cultivate youth in our community through exceptional lacrosse programs, inspiring participants to be their best both on and off the field." We believe our program's mission and our work to help develop the youth in our community are complementary and synergistic with Teton County School Districts' mission "to ensure that all students have the foundation for success and are challenged to reach their full potential." The team sports experience has a powerful impact to make a difference in a young person's life. 

As an independent, community-based youth sports organization, JHLC has registration fees for its programs. JHLC offers scholarships for any family that needs and requests them. Youth players apply for scholarships through our community partner One22, and high school players apply for scholarships directly to the staff. JHLC does not put a limit on the number of players or the dollar amount for scholarships given. No player has ever been turned away due to cost. Additionally, JHLC offers free rental lacrosse equipment for any player in need.

JHLC also works to keep registration fees as low as possible. JHLC relies on fundraising efforts, sponsors, and grants in order to do this. JHLC uses the TCSD rec district grant to purchase lacrosse equipment and safety netting for the fall and spring seasons.

Executive Summary: We realized that the pandemic would be an ongoing, long-term situation that exacerbated challenges for parents and schools. Working parents had fewer choices for their children, needing additional activities, even as local educational efforts needed supplemental programming. Food insecurity continued to rise during this time, as the economy reflected the roller coaster of openings, mandates, closures. Additively, Teton County lower wage earners
began to reckon with additional hours required by jobs servicing growing tourism and a lack of affordable housing. Childcare costs have been rising and availability is slim. Families had to leave children home so they could keep their jobs and keep our community running.
 

JH Public Art’s Summer ArtMobile has expanded its offerings in the midst of these changes to our community. Further, we have increased youth programming into additional seasons, at the request of teachers and families. We base our ArtMobile program on current public art offerings – the troll last year. This summer, we will increase our outreach to families across Teton County by adding a Community Artist (CoArtist) to the program. Using the ArtMobile along with popup events across the county, we will bring art-making opportunities to a wider scope of individuals, to engage whole families in creative art.

Arts based programming emphasizes imaginative thinking, and it enhances school-based curriculum. We design our programs to be mobile – with the ArtMobile and also through pop-ups. This means our programs reach a diverse audience of youth by landing in local parks, neighborhoods, the library, and various part of town, opening the door to creativity and collaboration.

Additional programming for youth includes youth murals that are created for various bicycle underpasses. Youth have the opportunity to work directly with a local artist to brainstorm messaging and then create the murals together as a group, learning the give and take of group behavior.

For the ArtMobile and CoArtist pop-up programming (after school), we will work in partnership with a variety of entities including Teton County Library, Art Association, and pARTners. We will focus summer youth programs on low-income neighborhoods such as Blair Apartments, Cottonwood, and Aspen Meadows. Where possible, we will offer healthy snacks for participating families. Our community mobilizer will translate programming messaging to Spanish-speaking
families and the CoArtist will facilitate art creation.

Amidst a prolonged pandemic and economic turmoil, our youth programming engaged 950 youth and families last year. We will continue to partner with additional community groups to bring differently-abled people and at-risk youth to ArtMobile, mural, and pop-up art making.

JH Public Art youth programming provides children and families with free, healthy, creative, outdoor engagement in the summertime, providing for youth who are unable to attend summer programs due to cost, and creative afterschool art making activities during the school year. Social interactions among children and families are encouraged in this safe, making and learning environment. With help from the Recreation District, we can create the perfect mix of partnerships, arts and culture, food, and fresh locations to enhance and grow this beloved community program.

Executive Summary: Jackson Hole Therapeutic Riding (JHTR) respectfully requests $5,000 from TCSD #1 Recreation District toward our School-Based Adaptive Riding Program. If awarded, grant funding will support nine weeks of Adaptive Riding lessons for more than 25 TCSD #1 students ages 5 to 21 with disabilities who are on an Individualized Education Program (IEP). Students will participate once weekly for a four-week session in fall 2022 and again for a five-week session in 
spring 2023.

Regardless of disability, all people benefit from physical activity. However, it is reported that individuals with disabilities are more likely to be sedentary, placing them at risk for numerous health concerns. In Teton County, Wyoming, few opportunities for this population to engage in physical activity are available. Lack of opportunity is further compounded by high participation fees. Of the programs that do exist, most are expensive and unattainable. Because many individuals 
with disabilities require exceptional levels of care and related costs, the economic burden frequently prohibits participation in auxiliary activities.

Within Teton County, Wyoming, 7% of individuals live with a disability (2018 State Report for Wyoming County-Level Data). Of these, many are school-aged children whose families fall within the low- to moderate socioeconomic category. Consequently, some 65% of our school-aged children rely on 
financial assistance in order to participate.

At JHTR, we do not believe participants should be denied these life- enhancing services simply due to their inability to pay. Through an 11-year partnership with Teton County School District #1, families of students with disabilities are not faced with deciding between cost and participation. Instead, our program is costless to all students on IEP enrolled through the school district. This ensures that every child, regardless of their family’s financial capabilities, is afforded the opportunity to engage in physical activities similar to those of their able-bodied peers. With funding assistance through the TCSD #1 Recreation District grant, financial restraints 
present no barrier to participation.

Executive Summary: We are asking for funds in order to help pay for new uniforms and equipment needs. Funding for uniforms and equipment allows JHYB
to keep our programs affordable for families in our community as well as provide financial assistance for those who need it. With high usage of our equipment, it gets well used year to year. We are also interested in purchasing video equipment for our more experienced programs.

Executive Summary: Jackson Hole Youth Soccer (JHYS) impacts a large segment of our local community. Last year JHYS had approximately 750 players with 1,050 total registrations for our programs. We operate soccer programs year-round, including indoor soccer in the winter and camps during the summer. In total, JHYS provides healthy after school options for over 30% of all kids in local schools. Our  programs provide a positive impact on the education and development of 
children in the Jackson Hole community. We teach the ethics of hard work, the benefits of teamwork, self and team discipline along with the satisfaction of putting in the effort to achieve goals. Equipment is a vital part of our ability to engage young people in high-quality soccer experiences and equipment turnover is a large annual expense for the club. Soccer balls have on average a one year shelf life before they must be replaced due to heavy use throughout the season. We also need to invest annually in cones, training jerseys, equipment bags, mini goals, corner flags, agility training equipment, and player safety. This funding will not only allow us to provide our coaches and players with the necessary equipment to succeed, but it will also provide us the opportunity to subsidize the cost of jerseys and ease the financial burden on our Academy (recreational) families. For the upcoming spring soccer season, our season rates are unchanged for all of recreational 
programming. We recognize that a lot of families in the valley have been effected financially recently and JHYS does not want soccer to contribute to that burden. More so than ever, we are looking to outside resources to help us absorb this financial impact on our club.

Executive Summary: Off Square Theatre Company (OSTC) seeks funding for its youth musical, a one-of-a-kind opportunity for youth in grades 3-12 to participate in a full-scale theatrical production during the academic year. While the high school produces an annual musical, OSTC is the only provider of an after-school program in theatre of this magnitude for this range of ages. It gives students a supportive hands-on environment to hone theatrical skills like public speaking, problem solving, collaborative teamwork, risk taking, and movement/coordination. This program is especially valuable to the community because it allows children of all ages to work together, make new friends, and learn mentorship skills by helping each other succeed.

The 2023 youth musical will be OSTC’s 13th consecutive year of youth musicals. Over the years, OSTC has honed the process to ensure maximum return on the investment in our children. The process begins with auditions and casting in October, followed by vocal coaching in November and December, with the full rehearsals launching in January. Young artists are led by a professional team and are challenged to excel as they learn new skills and develop their imagination, all while having fun in a supportive environment.

Historically, the primary activity for participants in the youth musical was as a performer. However, 2022 saw the launch of an exciting new program of Youth Interns who worked backstage throughout the rehearsal process and performances. Junior Interns (grades 3-8) received an introduction to technical theatre and producing through workshops and key behind-the-scenes jobs during performances. One high school student served as the Student Director and Dance Captain, gaining leadership, organizational, and vocational skills. This new program served four students total in 2022, and we look forward to seeing its growth in 
2023.

Theatre education provides unique developmental opportunities for students. 100% of surveyed participants of our 2022 musical reported one or more of the following changes: increased body awareness, improved communication skills, improved problem- solving skills, changes in use of imagination/problem-solving, increased connection socially, improved reading and/or reading aloud, improved public speaking, and improved listening skills. Parents and teachers have noted an increase in classroom participation and increased discipline when it comes to homework. OSTC uses participation in this unique educational project as a vehicle 
to develop skills necessary to navigate the complex 21st century world, including social-emotional skills, communication skills, self-discipline, a strong work ethic, and self-esteem.

In summary, the annual youth musical provides a vehicle for youth development within the community’s cultural ecosystem and is a programmatic addition to the academic and extracurricular offerings of TCSD#1.

Executive Summary: The Skating Club of Jackson Hole's after-school Learn to Skate program provides opportunities for skaters ages 3 and up to promote the enjoyment of ice skating and athletic achievement. The program is divided into two semesters. The first semester runs from September until Christmas break. The second semester begins in January and runs until Spring Break. This year, the 2021 – 2022 season, our program has served approximately 155 Teton County School District students, and 15 adults. 

The Holiday On Ice performance is the culmination of all of the hard work and dedication from the skaters in our program during the first semester, and is one of the most widely attended holiday performances in Teton County. The 2021 performances showcased two world renowned and champion guest skaters who brought the audience to their feet. Children who attend or skate in the performance are inspired by what they may someday achieve as a skater. The Holiday On Ice serves to help build confidence and self-esteem in those who participate. It is also an opportunity for friends, family, and community members to appreciate the skills the skaters have acquired.

When registration opened for the second semester, shortly after the Holiday Show, we had an increase in registration of almost 50%. The Holiday Show is a very important component of the overall success of our program by introducing students in the audience to figure skating and causing them to be excited for the opportunity to participate. Students who participate in the Holiday Show are much more likely to enroll in the second semester and return to the program for 
years to follow.

As our current programming stands for the second semester, we hold an exhibition show for skaters to participate in. Historically, we have not held a large end of season production. Many of our skaters, as well as their families, as noted in a recent survey, have expressed an interest in holding a Spring Extravaganza of similar caliber to the Holiday Show. 

With the Holiday Show boosting our registration numbers, it is also increasing our program revenue. The Holiday Show itself has become one of our strongest fundraisers of the year. It is our belief that producing a Spring Extravaganza would continue to boost our registration numbers and help us to maintain a high level of retention from year to year.

The weakest numbers in our program are our highest level of skaters. We rely heavily on our upper-level skaters to provide a strong support system for our younger skaters. Most of our upper- level skaters have assumed roles as coaches, mentors, and role models. In addition to continuing to perfect their own skills and advance through the ranks as a figure skater, the older skaters compete in figure skating competitions around the region, and they fill a need for coaches within the program. As coaches, our skaters are building their own confidence and self-esteem while being compensated for their leadership qualities and expertise.

Participating in shows allows the upper-level skaters to not only showcase their skills as a figure skater, but also allows them to showcase their leadership qualities and their coaching skills. 

As we have seen through the success of our Holiday Show, producing a Spring Extravaganza could have a very positive impact on our skaters and the overall health and strength of our program.

Executive Summary: The Youth Cooking & Farming Summer Camp provides a very important recreational opportunity that would otherwise not be available in our community. Participants spend one week cooking in an outdoor kitchen and working in a beautiful organic garden at the Calico. Ingredients for cooking come primarily from the gardens and other local farms and ranches. The venue is equipped with a basic outdoor kitchen, a several raised bed vegetable gardens, a washing and preparation station, an indoor greenhouse and compost pile. Camp activities are focused around understanding local food systems, farm-to-table cooking and healthy and nutritious eating. Students learn skills such as basic gardening, plant identification, harvesting vegetables, compost and soil maintenance, milling whole grains, baking, recipe creation, general kitchen safety and cleanliness.

The unique blend of cooking in an outdoor kitchen and harvesting ingredients directly from a garden sets this camp experience apart. There is a very high demand for this camp among participants and parents. Within two days of Slow Food announcing registration, all four of our 2021 camps filled to capacity including wait lists. Slow Food is offering up a total of five full camps and three mini camps this year in partnership with Coombs Outdoors. We are seeking funding to support this expanded camp opportunity, making it accessible to more children across the entire community.

Scholarship opportunities are available for both camps and mini camps through a partnership with One22.

Executive Summary: The TCSAR Foundation will continue to offer educational workshops and programs to the youth of Teton County, WY. Demand for this programming is acute, demonstrated by the rate at which these workshops fill and the current trend of younger and younger backcountry athletes becoming common in our community. The Foundation has over a decade of experience with adult programming and has successfully expanded to reach younger demographics, preparing local students to safely and competently recreate in the outdoors. Our programming has been steadily growing and now includes four Youth What’s in Your Pack classes throughout the year as well as free admission to the Wyoming Snow and Avalanche Workshop. Ongoing partners include the JH Ski and Snowboard Club, Coombs Outdoors and TCSD #1. By continuing to offer a preventative approach to backcountry education, we hope to give local students tools to eliminate injuries and fatalities in the backcountry.

Executive Summary: Teton Music School seeks funding to support the purchase audio and digital music equipment for our after-school music performance ensembles and group classes for local students ages 11-18. Support for this equipment purchase will help strengthen the foundation of TMS so that we can more effectively and efficiently develop and deliver accessible music education opportunities for our community.

We have identified specific equipment needs to support the following programs (starting Fall 2022):

Songwriting/Music Production (Grades 6-12) –Students are introduced to the world of songwriting, recording, and storytelling. They learn how to write lyrics, rhyme schemes, and song structure basics, exploring the differences and similarities between genres in popular music. Students gain experience in collaborating with others, learn basic piano skills, and get to know different microphones and technical equipment. They also learn recording software - how to record, use audio 
interfaces, mic techniques, signal flow, audio editing, sampling, beat making and musical projects.

High School Rock Band (Grades 9-12) / Middle School Rock Band (Grades 6-8) - Students with prior experience on band instruments like drums, percussion, bass guitar, rhythm/lead guitar, keyboards, woodwinds, brass, and vocals can experience participating and performing in a band. Students learn rehearsal etiquette/preparation/practices, music theory, memorization, and how to participate as a contributing member of an ensemble. Bands  select and learn new music together and have opportunities to perform in the community.

A Cappella Group (Grades 8-12) - By emulating instruments such as bass, guitar, piano, and drums, we use the voice to create the sound of a full band. Students train their ears to sing in harmony, learn through sight reading, become skilled beat-boxers, and create their own arrangements. Songs are selected and arranged by the instructor and the group, exploring genres such as pop, doo-wop, and classic rock.

Private Instruction (Grades K-12) - Students attend weekly private lessons in piano, guitar, drums, voice, ukulele, woodwinds, music production and more.

***

TMS has relied largely on the personal musical equipment of our instructors in order to deliver our programs. As enrollment, programs and performance opportunities continue to grow, TMS needs to invest in our own equipment for student use. Except for pianos, any equipment brought into our space at The Center must be easy to disassemble, transport and store as our space is multi-purpose and used nightly by community ensembles like the Jackson Hole Community Band. As with any equipment intended for students, everything we acquire must be durable and able to withstand frequent, heavy use.

Needed Equipment

1) Audio Equipment - a full PA system a for our after-school rock bands and for student use at community events and performances. Currently only one of our two rehearsal rooms is outfitted to support amplified music (rock bands, A Cappella group). In order to accommodate demand for these programs, we need to outfit the second room. The setup involves speakers for the room, monitors for individual musicians to hear themselves, additional microphones, mic stands, cables and 
adapters, and an additional guitar amp. The after-school rock band program and A Cappella groups will be the primary users of this purchase, but the new audio equipment will also be used by students for camps, clinics, recordings, private lessons, and, to a lesser degree, outdoor performances and at Old Bill’s Fun Run.

2) Music Production Equipment and Cases – Each student needs to have their own workstation with a computer. To accommodate this, we rent computer lab space at the Art Association, which houses 11 computer workstations. TMS provides the digital music equipment and software. The music software is provided via sponsorship with Ableton Live, and we are using borrowed equipment that we will no longer have access to after this school year. We need to purchase our own: midi controllers (like a digital piano keyboard), headphones, audio interfaces, and adapters to connect everything. Travel cases are required to store the music production equipment as we are unable to leave our production class set up from week to week.

3) Piano – TMS teaches out of five rooms at The Center, but owns only four pianos (all but one were donated to us) – the piano in the fifth room belongs to The Center. The Center’s piano is occasionally needed for its own programs during lessons. In addition, only two of our pianos are suitable for teaching on: two have damage that prevent them from staying in tune. We need a good, solid piano in each of our five teaching rooms. Our plan is to purchase a Yamaha P-22 upright piano for the 2022-23 school year so that we own all five of our instruments, and so that we have a new piano in excellent condition appropriate for student use. This specific piano has been selected for its durability and sound quality. We plan to replace the other two instruments in future years.

About Teton Music School

Founded and staffed by a group of local professional musicians and fans, TMS is a non-profit organization whose mission is to enrich lives by providing accessible music education and exceptional music performance experiences for the benefit of the Jackson Hole community. 

Teton Music School opened its doors in September 2019, aiming to fill the music education gap in our community. Teton County craves music education at this level: TMS taught 5,230 lessons last year. We are now wrapping up our third year of operation in The Center for the Arts, and we have nearly 200 students and a waiting list for the after- school lesson times. 

TMS is building our capacity and operational ability to better serve our mission. We have a passionate staff of 12 talented music teachers who deliver exceptional musical experiences daily. We have adopted a financially conservative business model; all core programming, including lessons and summer camps, is self-funding.

TMS is led by a full time Executive Director, we hold a 3-year lease with The Center, and we have begun fundraising in a more deliberate manner, participating in Old Bill’s Fun Run for the second time in 2021 to help grow our program.

Executive Summary: Teton Youth and Family Services (TYFS) is an organization that works with more than 675 children and families in our community. We
provide a continuum of services, from prevention to intervention. Each of our programs, and specifically our Jackson Hole Leadership Program (JHLP), provide recreational activities for the youth we serve. Activities include rock climbing, backpacking, hiking, skiing and mountain biking to more team-oriented sports like soccer and basketball. We work with youth to help them develop pro-social relationships with staff and peers through these activities. Each activity is designed with a lesson in mind, such as teambuilding or trust-building, to provide youth endless opportunities to work directly with trained staff and peer groups to build healthier connections with each other. Program staff operating our programs have extensive experience in outdoor and experiential education. All are CPR certified, have a minimum certification of Wilderness First Aid and extensive experience working with children.
